this is the one that's going to change everything. and it appears now, unless something changes on a vote with the assault weapons ban, that even newtown won't be able to get america to a weapons ban. >> no, there's a lot of concern. when you look at newtown, when you look at the deaths in chicago alone, if we can't do it at this moment, there's a real sense that it won't be done. so it sees the time right now, and get as much done in terms of gun control and many of us have been advocating for years right now, while the attention is there and while you have such an overwhelming public support. the only thing that i would hasten to add to what was said, i would want senator reid to be very careful on the changing demographics in some of those states, because we learned from last year's elections that a decade ago, two decades ago, is no longer what some of those states in terms of the electorate has become. and i think you could galvanize your vote if you took some stands in some of those states. and i agree with you on louisiana. but

people come out and say, we have to change our belief systems, change our values. that's not the case. i think we have to be able to articulate how what we believe is relevant to more than just ageing white guys who make over $100,000. as you know, the republicans who win campaigns and are dangerous -- everybody, when i ran, no republican had won in my district. working class voters all voted for me. you go through working class neighborhoods and every pickup truck wasn't the democrats. it's so funny. you go around the bayou and where the doctors live, not there. you get to where the country was, all those people voted for me. that's what we've lost, that ronald reagan populist appeal. >> absolutely. if you look at new jersey, for example, chris christie, he's put the state's fiscal house into order. he's taken on the teachers unions. he's taken on the excesses of public employee unions. he straightened the state out. he has record number of support with hispanics in new jersey. republicans can advance conservative agenda and get the support of minorities and women
